A FIGHT ON TURPIE.
The Republicans Will Try to Keep
Him Out of the Senate.


Him Out of the Senate.
WASHINGTON, Dec. The Democratic
Senators feel pretty confident that Mr..
Faulkner, of West Virginia, and Mr. Hearst,
of California, will be seated without diff.
Guilty. The Republican officials Of the Sen
ate, acting under the direction of the Re-
publican officers of the Senate, have placed
the names of Mr.. Faulkner and Mr. Hearst
on two of the Senatorial desks, but no desk
has been SO prepared for Mr.. Turpie, of
Indiana. On the contrary, the Republicans
seem to be preparing to keep him out. The
whip they have issued urging the Repub-
lican Senators to be present on Tuesday is
suggestive OF fight The Senators elect
are always sworn III Que by one, in the alpha
betical order of their names. Mr.. Turpie is
at the end of the list. 1t is thought that
when he is reached Senator Hoar, Chair
man of the Committee on Privileges and
Elections, win object on the ground that
his certificate is invalid and that he was not
duly elected and seek to have the case
referred to the Committee on Privileges and
Elections. The Democrats count, in this
emergency. on Mr.. Riddleberger, who, they
say wants Mr. Turpie sc ted and his right
TO the seat determined later.

AN oMINoUs CALM.
Paris is calm, but it is a calm which
causes distrust on the part of the authori-
ties, and the precautions have been re-
doubled. Eight regiments of cavalry are
held in readiness at Versailles. Yesterday
and to-day the streets were placarded in all
directions with posters which were torn
down as fast as possible by the police.
These read:
People of Paris; The republic is in danger.
congress is about to name President Grevys
successor at Versailles. There is q monstrouS
conspiracy to deliver the country TO Ferry, the
famine breeder; to Ferry, the Tonquinois; to
Ferry, the valet of Bismarck Republicans of
all shades, Socialists or Revolutionists, shall we
allow such a crime TO be perpetrated? Mo- A

Paul DeCasagnac writes to-day that the
situation is changing from day to day, al
most from hour to hour. Yesterday the
Radicals had chosen NJ, DeFreycinet as their
champion against NJ. Ferry; to-day they
base their hopes on NJ. Flouquet;
tomorrow there may still be another
change. Strangely enough, NJ. Ferry is NJ.
Flouquet's uncle by marriage. The Radi-
Gals are losing heart. Their violent and
revolutionary language shows that they
fear defeat on the first ballot. NJ Ferry
will poll 800 TO $40 votes; NM DeFreycinet
and Flouquet cannot muster over 220. Some
weaker candidate like Sadi Carnot or NJ
Brisson may control 20 or 30 votes Prob
ably NJ. Ferry will lack so to 100 votes of
election, and NJ. Flouquet more. One of
the factions may become disorganized, but
not sufficiently to determine the success of
the others"

A REIGN OF TERROR.
Whites and Blacks in Deadly Conflict
in Arkansas


MEMPHIS, TENN. Dec. IA reign of ter
ror prevails in Cat Island, in Crittenden
county, Arkansas, twenty-five miles below
Memphis, on the Mississippi river. Martin
Thomas and Joseph Hamlet, two residents
of that neighborhood, arrived in Memphis
this evening and brought intelligence of an
ARRAY which occurred this morning between
whites and negroes, which resulted in the
killing of two negroes and the wounding
of several others. The affray grew out OF
the arrest of some negroes, who, 1t is
alleged, insuted some white ladies yester-
day. They were TO be tried this morning
before Justice of the Peace Their act
had aroused the indignation Of the whites
aud about dozen each of both races met
this forenoon at the preliminary investiga-
tion before a colored magistrate. As to
who started the row nothing can
be learned, but in the shooting
that followed both negroes under
arrest were killed and two or three others OF
the friends were wounded. The negroes
fled, but after arming themselves, prepared
to sreturn to the scene of conflict. They
fired at Thomas and Hamlet, who were in
sliff, and when last seen they were going ir
the direction of where their companions had
been killed. The negroes on Cat Island out
number the whites ten TO one, and serioW
trouble is anticipated. 1t is impossible to
gather fuller details tonight.

FORGERY OF BIsMARoKs NAME.
The Cologne Gazette Resumes It's
Work of Exposure.

The Cologne Gazette Resumes It's
Work of Exposure.
BERLIN, Dec 1.-The North German
marck wrote to Count Schouvaloff, the Rus
sian Ambassador, asking for all audience
with the Gar, and adds: THAT is a custo-
mary procedure. The Chancellor would
have laid himself open to charge of neglect
had he omitted seeking an audience with an
honored guest of tine Emperor in the usual
manner. He had to fulfill duty of honor,
while the Gar was at liberty to grant or re-
fuse an audience"
The CoIoqne Gazette to-day returns to its
forgery revelations. 1t states that letter,
purporting to have been written by Prince
Henry, of Reuss, the German Ambassador
at Vienna, is a forgery. The letter, it.says,
was among the documents which Count
Schouvaloif, by order of the Car. sub
mitted for the inspection of Prince Bis
marck. The Prince of Reuss denies having
any knowledge of the letter.
The North German Gazette, in the
course of a political review, says: "By re-
producing verbatim characteristic passages
of articles in the Russian press we enable
Germans to see that up to the present time,
not even the transitory effect of recent adj
monition 70 observe moderation is percepti-
ble in one of the Russian newspapers"
TONE OF THE RUSSIAN PRESS
Moscow, Dec. 1.--Despite the order to
the press of Russia not to attack Germany,
the newspapers continue to print hostile
criticisms ON the disclosures made regarding
the interview between the Gar
and Prince Bismarck. They say
that if Prince Bismarck is correct in
stating that Russian officials misled the Car
all such officials should be dismissed; and on
the other hand, if the statement is euntrue,
or is not proved, the German Ambassador
ought to Immediately receive his passport.

MILLS IN A FALSE LIGHT.
A Bill He Kcows Nothing About
Published as His Production.

WASHINGTON, Dec. Representative
Roger Q. Mills, of Texas, says that the tariff
bill published to-day as having been pre-
pared by him for introduction when Con-
gress meets, was not prepared by him. He
has not prepared any bill. He says he has
not even formulated his ideas on the tariff
in memorandum. He does not know, he
says, yet what ideas he will present.
lie speaks very severely of what he seems
to consider an attempt to prejudice the pub
lie mind against him by publishing bill as
his for which he is not responsible. The
publication has certainly hurt Mr.. Mills
chances of being Chairman Of the Commit
tee on WAYS and Means.

KAUAI NOTES.

On Tuesday evening, little child
not 2 years of age, belonging to a
German employed in the Lihue
Mill, was playing near the edge of
the Mill pond. The recent rains
having softened the ground, the
little one slipped into the water,
which was of considerable depth, and
was drowned.
Mr.. Rowatt, V. S. has been busy
day after day inspecting horses.
Last Saturday, he examined 200 and
300 in Lihue and vicinity, and
found only one suspicious case.
On Tuesday, he went to Waimea
district, and left word along the
road that all horses must be brought
to pastures designated by him, and
on his return he would stop and ex-
amined the stock. On Monday, all
the Lihue Plantation horses will be
inspected, after which the Doctor
goes to Kappa, Kilauea, &c.
Dr. II. Walters lost favOrite
horse this week; cause, infamma-
ton of the bladder.
Mr.. Tweedie, the popular store
keeper at Kealia, is doing a fine

miles in order to procure goods
there, and are much pleased that
such store has been established
there.

TUESDAY. NOV. 29, 1887.
ABSURD.

A gentleman of enlarged views of
this country's future, and with I'M
limited confidence in schemes of
which he seems to have very indis-
tinct understanding, and withal an
active protector ON paper of enter
prises for the development and adj
vancement of these islands, thinks
we should revive and advocate a
former Prime Minister'S notion of a
railway around the island of Oahu.
Now, we would ask our friend to
calculate the cost of construction, of
keeping in repair, of rolling stock,
and of running such a railway. Let
him put these together in lump
sum, and then calculate the amount
required from traffic to leave net
profit of only 4 per cent. on the out
lay. And having done this, will he
tell us, that even if the whole popu-
lation of the island devoted their
time, day and night, perpetually to
travelling by rail-if the cultivator
of the soil left his occupation, the
shop-keeper his counter, the mer-
chant his store, the mechanic his
tools, and the laborer his work-nay
even if Ministers, Members of the
Legislature, and Editors rushed
from their desks, and, in the frenzy
of enthusiasm for progress, jumped
into the boiler---we ask him, if all
these distinguished and obscure per-
sons devoted the residue of their
existence to travelling around the
island by steam, would all their
united efforts suffice to keep the
rails in repair, provide the working
expenses, and pay the small interest
named on the capital?
No doubt, railway around this
island would be great convenience
for purposes of business and pleas
ure. The convenience of rapid
transit cannot be denied. If some
rich man proposed to lay line of
railway from our friends place of
business to his private residence,
could he object on the score of in
convenience? But capitalists do not
consider the convenience of indi-
yiduals or the public apart from
their own profit. The first and
main question with them is, will it
pay? This railway scheme will not
and can not pay, and it is therefore
absurd to talk about it.
